Re: [Chevelle-list] Update: Hole in frame of '90 Caprice

There are deals on classics still.  They are around but definitely not on e-bay.  My dream car was out of reach 1970-72 Chevelle when I was 16.  I did however get a 71 Cutlass S for $150 with a bad trans and radiator.  With help from friends and about $1000 in parts I really had a looker.  I sold it when I got married the first time.  In 1988 I found my first 72 Chevelle for $125 in SD.  About 6 months ago I found a friend a 70 2 door Malibu for $250.  Time is my problem, with a growing family, grass to keep up and about 20 other honey do's my current Chevelle just sits on jack stands.  13 years of ownership I haven't driven it more than 100 miles.  One thing I do know, the value will not go down.  I see decent drivers under 3K that are in decent shape yet most being around the $1500 range. ----- Original Message ----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, July 20, 2004 11:53 AM Subject: Re: [Chevelle-list] Update: Hole in frame of '90 Caprice Your right. Id love to get my hands on one. Money is the only problem. Everything costs way too much these days. College especially. Why should people have to pay so much to make people intelligent. Yes, I know that we have to pay for all of the supplies, thats where the problem is. Its all so expensive. If it wasnt for inflation, prices would still be the same as they used to be, of course it would still seem expensive because eveyone would just make less money. Stupid money. Its gonna be a long time before my dream of ownig a muscle car comes true. No plastic cars for me. Gotta be metal and it has to have chrome. Sweet, shiny chrome. :)
